Red Lines & Lost Credibility By Patrick J. Buchanan
A major goal of this Asia trip, said National Security Adviser H. R. McMaster, is to rally allies to achieve the "complete, verifiable and permanent denuclearization of the Korean peninsula."

Christ Church Looks Down on George Washington, Robert E. Lee By Charles Hurt
CORRECTION: In a column dated Oct. 29, 2017, I incorrectly noted: “The vestry of Christ Church in Alexandria, however, is not capable of grappling with such complexities. Truly, pearls before swine. After all, it is so much easier just to obliterate painful history than to understand it and learn from it.”

Another Reason To Protect Bicycle and Pedestrian Paths From Cars By Ted Rall
This week's ISIS-inspired truck attack in lower Manhattan by Uzbek immigrant Sayfullo Saipov has prompted discussions on a number of fronts. There is blowback, the foreign-policy-chickens-come-home-to-roost indicated by an increasing number of radical Islamists emerging from the former Soviet republic of Uzbekistan, a Central Asian nation whose brutal dictatorship is financed and armed by our U.S. taxdollars.

Keep Calm and Carry On By Michael Barone
Keep calm and carry on. Those words, though not appearing as extensively on posters in wartime Britain as often supposed, are good advice for Americans now appalled by the presidency of Donald Trump.

Their America, and Ours. By Patrick J. Buchanan

Signs and Portents By Kyle Kondik and Geoffrey Skelley
In an off-year long on election commentary but short on actual elections, the two main events on a Spartan political calendar are now upon us: New Jersey and Virginia will elect new governors next week, and the stakes are high, particularly for Democrats.

Christ Church and the Slavers' Blood Money By Charles Hurt
“All are welcome. No exceptions,” reads the cheap, blue sign zip-tied to the wrought iron fence between brick pillars outside Christ Church in Alexandria.
“All,” that is, except George Washington and Robert E. Lee. Or, anyone who reveres either of the two great generals. Or, even the memory of them.

President Trump Needs a Stable Dollar Along With Tax Cuts to Maximize Growth By Lawrence Kudlow
President Trump is likely to name a new Federal Reserve chair over the next few days. Speculation is focused on current Fed governor Jay Powell and Stanford University economist John Taylor.

Primary Colors in Red By Kyle Kondik
If President Trump actively campaigned against incumbents of his own party in primaries next year, it would be an unusual political occurrence. But it would not be without precedent. In fact, he wouldn’t even be the first ideologically flexible, wealthy New Yorker who occupied the Oval Office to do so.

We've fought in Afghanistan for 16 years now. Are we making progress?

The Lib Enablers of Perv Photog Terry Richardson By Michelle Malkin
If you wonder why Hollywood stayed so quiet so long about casting couch abuse behind closed doors, just look at how the entertainment industry enabled perverted sexual exploitation of women in front of the camera.

Are Our Mideast Wars Forever? By Patrick J. Buchanan

A Clown in a Sequined Cowboy Hat Distorts Greatest Sacrifice By Charles Hurt
At last America is once again unified. We are, it turns out, all racists.
